Azimio la Umoja One Kenya coalition party’s chief agent at the 2022 presidential poll Saitabao Ole Kanchory now claims that the United Democratic Alliance (UDA) party had cloned the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) server.
According to Kanchory, this gave the President-elect William Ruto team access to the backend of the server for purposes of manipulation of the polls.
The Azimio agent cited this as among what he termed as a multitude of evidence that the Raila Odinga-led political faction has attached in its petition to the Supreme Court challenging Ruto’s win of the presidential election.
“We have presented compelling evidence in our petition to show that there was a criminal scheme to manipulate the elections. We have shown, before the Supreme Court, that UDA essentially had a black server. In technology terms, that is a clone of the IEBC server,” he said during a Wednesday interview on KTN News.
He further claimed that Kenya Kwanza agent and Uasin Gishu Woman Representative Gladys Boss spearheaded a team from the rival coalition that was allegedly tasked with manipulating the poll results at the Bomas of Kenya.
Kanchory alleged that Boss and her team coordinated with a section of the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) in what he termed as their criminal endeavour.
He said that Azimio collected enough evidence implicating Boss in these “clandestine operations” and has since presented them to the police and the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI).
These evidences, he said, were obtained for some of the devices such as phones and laptops that they were able to confiscate from Boss and her team during the exercise, which allegedly showed that they had access to the IEBC server.
“Gladys herself is a suspect and an accused person in the criminal interference and manipulation of the 2022 presidential election results. We have evidence that we have presented both to the DCI and the police with OB numbers of her agents that she was facilitating on the floor of Bomas,” said Kanchory.
“The documents that we found and the laptops and phones that we presented to the police contain very incriminating evidence against Gladys, her party, her principal and the IEBC.”
He added: “We have presented compelling evidence in our petition to show that there was a criminal scheme to manipulate the elections. We have shown, before the Supreme Court, that UDA essentially had a black server. In technology terms, that is a clone of the IEBC server.”
Boss, who was also a part of the interview, in her defence said she only carried her laptop to Bomas because the documents that were being relayed by IEBC were too many to verify manually.
She hence questioned the criteria their Azimio counterparts were using if they indeed chose not to go to Bomas with electronic gadgets for the exercise.
The Kenya Kwanza stalwart also sought to hit out at the Azimio agents alleging that, if this was the case, then they did not do the job that they had been deployed by their leader to do.
She further questioned how they were not caught on any of the myriad cameras that were streaming the Bomas activity live across various platforms, if indeed they were manipulating the poll results.
“Baba’s agents are lying to him that they checked. I can tell Baba pole sana, your agents were not looking at the forms and they’re lying to you that they did. Luckily, those very forms have been taken to the Supreme Court, you can have an opportunity to look at them yourself, Baba. Don’t believe these guys,” said Boss.
“In any case, Bomas was live for the whole world for the entire period. In all that manipulation, you’re telling me that none of the cameras caught us? And they did not raise it. Where is your error report? Because all those errors you’re saying on national television are not attached to your supporting affidavit.”
